TORONTO, November 12, 2004 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Equipping Christians for the Public Square Centre (ECP Centre), a newly formed Canadian group to inspire Canadians to defend marriage, has announced their annual “IGNITE OUR CULTURE” conference. It will take place Saturday, November 13, 2004 at the Crossroads Centre, in Burlington, Ontario. “IGNITE OUR CULTURE conference will be an annual national event for the ECP Centre,” said Rev. Tristan Emmanuel, the Centre’s executive director. “It is our contention that the social trends and policies that negatively impact Canadian society have largely been advanced due to the lack of meaningful opposition from Christians. It is only because there have been no tangible and viable alternatives from Christians that militant secular humanism has filled the void in culture. The ECP Centre’s vision is to reverse this trend, with tangible, measurable and sustainable projects that encourage Christians to take up the role of cultural leadership,” said Rev. Emmanuel. The 9am-4pm conference will feature speakers including Senator Anne Cools, Conservative MP Maurice Vellacott, Toronto Printer Scott Brockie who battled in court for the right to refuse to print materials for a homosexual activist group, and Interim editor Paul Tuns.
